Kinabase now offers a dedicated temperature field so you can store Celsius (°C), Fahrenheit (F) or Kelvin (K) values.

With this temperature field you can run unit-aware calculations and export clean data. No more manual conversions or formula work-arounds—accurate, audit-ready temperature data lives right inside your collections.

Add a temperature field to any collection and capture Celsius (°C), Fahrenheit (F) or Kelvin (K) values with automatic unit conversions.

Whether you monitor cold-chain inventory, lab conditions or equipment performance, you can now calculate, chart and export temperature data without leaving Kinabase.

Why it matters:

• Collect once, reuse everywhere – store readings in °C, °F or K and let Kinabase handle the conversions.
• Crunch numbers with confidence – formulas respect offsets, prevent invalid sums and return clear delta units.
• Export clean data – CSV files now include typed zeroes and correct symbols so downstream tools stay in sync.

How it works:

1. Open Collection Configuration → Field settings and add a new field.
2. Select Temperature as the field type.
3. In the details tab: Choose your default unit (Celsius, Fahrenheit or Kelvin).
4. Define your Temperature fields' additional settings if required
   - formatting, permissions & validation settings (including limits).
5. Use new functions kelvin(), celsius() or fahrenheit()
   in Computed (Number) fields to convert units or combine temperatures with other metrics.

When to use it:

• Cold-Chain Managers logging fridge and freezer temperatures for compliance.
• Design Engineers calculating thermal loads or specific heat capacity in product design.
• Production Engineers monitoring machine cycle temperatures.
